I'm now 29 weeks pregnant with my first child. Since my 20 week scan, my baby has had her head engaged. The past couple of weeks have been awful, resulting in sleepless nights due to the pelvic pain and pressure in my pelvic area - the only way to describe the pain is the feeling of being kicked! It's made worse by only being able to sleep on your sides which of course adds to the pressure and suppresses the pelvis.
I have a meeting tomorrow with a specialist, as I also now have Gestational Diabetes, perhaps the baby can be turned to make the final 11 weeks more comfortable? I hope.
